17x8 Konig CounterSteer Type X

December 09, 2013 Update:

Inventory is very, very limited, and the next shipment has been slightly delayed to early-mid March 2014. I currently have at least one set of each color 17x8" Konig Countersteer Type X wheels in stock, so please contact me ASAP if you'd like a set.

Thanks everyone!

 

17x8" Konig Countersteer Type X - Matte Black - officially sold out as of today. Please PM me for information on the next shipment (available in Early 2014).

 

necro bump! stock height, stock size tires, Falken Wildpeak A/Ts. highly recommend this tire for mileage & road noise... good mileage, low noise, traction is kinda ehhh in wet conditions though. I put them on with the big silver center caps. I actually liked these some a lot of angles but they have started rusting due to winter salt so I am going to go with something different in the summer.

don't actually need to take mudflaps off with this setup either, I just ripped the driver's side one off on the huge curb in front of this shitty house





great seller too, very highly recommend these guys

 

Looks great temps! I recommend leaving hub caps off, just clean up the hubs and hit them with some flat or matte black rustoleum. Looks much better IMO.

 

Thanks for the post / photos! Great looking truck! We hardly ever see any red 2nd Gens anymore!

PM me if you need some black caps to replace those chrome caps.

 

thx.

that is what I'm going to do - keep the rims looking nice and deep. then maybe red pinstripe around the outside. don't think I'll do anything else, this truck was so good looking from the factory I can't see many ways to improve it.. since the yamaha already had the hood scoop and whatnot

 

How much more will the 17" with 4.1 backspace and -10 offset stick out than a wheel with 4.5" backspace and 0 offset of the same size? - Thanks

 

Hi,

The 17x8" -10mm offset (4.1" backspacing) wheels will sit outward 10mm additional (or approximately .4") more than 8" width / 0mm offset / 4.5" backspacing wheels.

 

Hey Dustin,
I was wondering if you may have an idea about when the next shipment of wheels will be here?
Thanks.

 

Thanks for the info!

 

Thanks for asking! It's expected to arrive the first week of May! Thank you and thank everyone for waiting patiently!

No problem!

 

Hey Dustin, I'm very interested in a matte bronze set of these for pick up. What is the timing and other details I should know? Website says May 15th just wondering if I should plan for that? Can PM me if you like.

Thanks!!!

 

Hi! The wheels will actually be back in stock tomorrow morning, and orders will be shipping out tomorrow afternoon. I'll PM you as well. You can also call me at (951)735-1100 - office or (714)390-9387 - cell (call or text).

 

Thanks Dustin. Great customer service and I'm so glad I had to wait but now can't wait to get them here.

 

You're very, very welcome. I really appreciate you and everyone else being so patient with the time that it took for the wheels to arrive.

I have contacted everyone from the waiting list / pre-order list, and all pre-orders have shipped.

It looks like we will definitely have a few matte black and matte bronze sets still available to ship out from this shipment. I might have one or two anthracite light gunmetal sets as well (still waiting for a couple of calls back from the waiting list).

Anyone who is interested in a set please call or text me on my cell: (714)390-9387.

 

*NEW FOR MAY 2014:

The 17" Konig Countersteer Type X wheels are now hub centric for 6-lug Toyotas and the lug holes are sized for 12mm Toyota studs for an even more precise fitment.

These new Konig Countersteer Type X wheels now also accept the popular flat type OEM center cap from Toyota : Part # PTR18-35092.

 

Now time to go get the tires on them and get them on the truck.

 

Nice! Thanks Phil!

 

A lot of people have been asking about them. I have to say at first the combo was a little different than I pictured but now I think its perfect. Thanks Dustin. The only thing that was a down side is that one wheel got scratched and nicked when I was getting them put on.

 

Sorry to hear that! If you take it up with the tire shop they normally will make it right. Sometimes they get in a rush and become a little careless.

I'm glad you're otherwise happy, and I'm glad you think the wheels/tires are perfect.
